Farr + Swit VicevsRedux COURG: Type-A

The Farr + Swit Vice is widely praised for its vibrant, 1980s-inspired colorways and unique dial designs, with owners frequently highlighting its fun aesthetic and legibility. Reviewers and owners alike note its comfortable wearability and good value, especially considering the included straps. The watch features extensive lume applications, which are described as great by one owner. Some owners express a desire for an automatic movement option or the removal of the date function. The Farr + Swit Vice is a solar quartz chronograph with a simulated "mecha" chronograph function, which some find lacks the tactile feel of true mechaquartz. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Farr + Swit Vice highly for its distinctive style and value proposition.

Owners report a matte black dial with vintage numerals and RDXb1 blue lume on the 39mm titanium case. One owner notes deep corrosion on the case back, while another flags the RDXb1 lume as brilliant but short-lived and describes the crown stem as flimsy with a unidirectional bezel that has slight play. Overall, owners find the Redux COURG: Type-A to be a rugged, utilitarian tool watch, though some specific components like the lume and bezel action draw mixed commentary.
